We're about:

Do you like to listen to local authors and watch indie films? Are you interested in keeping up with what local writers are up to? Join us! Come to hang out with local DC-area booklovers and be supportive of indie cultural events.

Our main goal is to be a hub (Local Authors Scene) for DC area writer groups and book organizations to encourage collaboration, communication, & promote more buzz about local authors' work. Sign up athttp://CrowdPublish.TV, a local open source project, to list your books, blog, & events and browse the calendar of local book events. Critique groups, libraries, writer organizations, book clubs, independent bookstores, and local universities are involved.

Attendance policy:

We have a different organizer for every Meetup event. To contact the organizer of the event you are interested in attending, please look for "Who's Organizing?" at the top of the event page and contact the organizer directly.

Also, please be courteous to your organizers and fellow Meetup members. If for some reason you wish you attend a public event posted on our meetup but don't care if you connect with our group, please do so.
